Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Millbank Suggestions such as these may have seemed im possible to those to whom they were propounded; but that the plan of action was simple and feasible, is now most satisfactorily proved. Elam Lynds, the celebrated governor of sing-sing prison, in the State of New York, acted precisely in this manner, encamping out in the Open with his hundreds Of prisoners, and compelling them in this way to build their own prison-house, cell by cell, as bees would build a hive. De Tocqueville, commenting on this seemingly strange episode of prison history, Oh serves that the manner in which Mr. Elam Lynds built sing-sing would no doubt raise incredulity, were not the fact quite recent, and publicly known in the United States. To understand it we have only to realize what resources the new prison dis cipline of America placed at the disposal of an ener getic man.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Millbank, and Chapters in Prison History, Vol. 2 of 2 Such was the op1n10n of Official inspectors, and this opinion was endorsed by the Secretary of State. Its great hopes and ambitious aims were therefore at an end: it was all a mistake, a mockery, a sham. After seven-and-twenty years Of trial, unwearied efforts, and unlimited expense, there was nothing whatever to show. Even Mr. Nihil had admitted this much a year or two before. When examined by the Lords' Committee he had confessed that as a means of reformation it had not been productive Of as much good as might be anticipated. But at that time the chaplain-governor thought that his system had not had a fair and sufficient trial. There must be more separa tion, and there was, - more and yet more in spite of dark forebodings, - and still it was a failure. All at once, as we have seen in the last volume, it collapsed and came to an end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Millbank and Chapters in Prison History A few lines are perhaps needed to explain how I came to write this book. Having filled since 1872 the post of Deputy Governor of Millbank Prison, I have had, ex-officio, custody of the archives and records of the place. Casual reference to these led me to suppose that extracts from them might prove readable, and I therefore began to collect anecdotes and ana, meaning to publish a small volume of them. As my task proceeded, however, I found my subject growing with it. Millbank has since its erection been so closely connected with all that concerns prisons and penal legislation generally, that the history of one naturally embraced the other. My work has, therefore, become wider and more pretentious in its aim than was originally intended. It may also have become drier and more dull; but What the narrative loses in merely amusing qualities will, I trust, be compensated for by the more comprehensive treatment of the subject. I cannot allow' these volumes to go to press without expressing my thanks to those who have assisted me with advice and information more especially to wm. Morrish, Eso, Governor, R. M. Gover, esq., Medical Officer, and mr. Denis power, Chief Warder of Millbank Prison. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Only careful study of the correlation of individual item scores with total scores will answer this question. The staff has pointed out that abridgement of the method will not be accompanied by comparable reductions in survey costs. Furthermore, they insist that abridgement is likely to result in making the method of much less general value.
